堪萨斯州民主党净增20个众议院席位 打破共和党自2010年以来的超级多数

堪萨斯州民主党在本届选举中净增20个州众议院席位,打破共和党自2010年选举以来把持的超级多数。新一届众议院预计为共和党68席、民主党57席,共和党仍占多数,但已无法单独推翻州长否决。
州众议院少数党领袖 Brandon Woodard 就选举结果发表声明。超级多数的终结意味着民主党州长在与共和党主导的议会博弈时,手中的否决权将真正生效。

Kansas Democrats net 20 House seats, breaking GOP supermajority held since 2010
Kansas Democrats netted 20 state House seats in this election, breaking the Republican supermajority held since the 2010 election. The new House is expected to stand at 68 Republicans and 57 Democrats: Republicans keep the majority but can no longer override a governor's veto on their own.
House Minority Leader Brandon Woodard issued a statement on the results. The end of the supermajority means the Democratic governor's veto will carry real weight in dealings with the Republican-led legislature.
